564,230 | 102,816 | 30,069 | 6 | Not as funny as Caddyshack | In this cartoon Donald is out on a coastal golf course for a relaxing eighteen as his nephews caddie for him . Everything would have worked out fine if he were not so bossy . Huey , Duey and Louie play tricks on him to throw him ( such as swapping his clubs for nets and giving him phony balls ) off his game . And that'... |
563,996 | 102,816 | 32,251 | 6 | Fun , if senseless | In this cartoon Donald and Goofy are out in the countryside pasting up posters for tomato soup . It's a rather odd place to be doing such a thing considering such ads are usually pasted over the plywood boards of an abandoned shop in a dreary ghetto , but never mind . Goofy decides to paste a poster onto a windmill ( a... |
564,522 | 102,816 | 160,009 | 6 | Worthwhile | I liked this movie and I was glad I spent the money on it but the direction was awful . Christian Duguay tries so hard to inject flair and coolness into the movie but fails badly . Filters and rain do not make for flashy and original direction , it's been done a hundred times before . Also , the constant rain adds a RE... |
564,217 | 102,816 | 60,907 | 6 | Cradle will rock | The Pink Panther is sleeping in the treetops in a secluded part of the forest when a noisy man and his dog set up their camp below him for the night . The camper is happy to hog all the comfort for himself and leave his dog out in the cold but his snoring is keeping Pinky awake . Obviously less than pleased at this int... |
564,827 | 102,816 | 162,222 | 6 | Could have been great | Robert Zemeckis should know better than to make this the way he did . The scenes on the island are very cool and attractively shot but why on earth was this film made in 1 . 85 : 1 ? Zemeckis did Forrest Gump , Contact and What Lies Beneath in 2 . 35 : 1 so why not this film ? The beautiful island location would have b... |
564,530 | 102,816 | 241,526 | 6 | Cheap , but mildly effective and robust | I first heard about this film a long time ago . I can't remember how but I remember it had glowing reviews and that it was in the style of the Blair Witch Project . Well , it's NOT in the style of BWP . Yes , there are 3 youths out in the woods being stalked by an unseen psycho but they never acknowledge the presence o... |
564,734 | 102,816 | 241,527 | 6 | It's ' Philosopher's Stone ' ! | I'm not really a big fan of the HP films . I don't think that they translate well from the books as they are often quite long and need severe cutting down in order to fit into a 2 hour + film . This has been increasingly evident in the later HP sequels , but Philosopher's Stone seems to be pretty much all intact . I do... |
564,310 | 102,816 | 109,327 | 6 | A strange , curious little movie | I liked Brainscan when I was younger but it seems a bit dated now , even for a film made in 1994 . It just makes such a big deal out of CD-ROM technology . I guess the only game out back then was Myst . Michael Brower ( Furlong ) is a lonely kid . His mother is dead and his dad is often away on long business trips leav... |
563,757 | 102,816 | 454,778 | 6 | Fun for a short while | I first got this game way back in March 1993 when I was 12 and for some reason I thought it was great . Originally released on the Commodore Amiga in summer 1992 to coincide with the Barcelona Olympics it eventually found its way onto the Genesis at around the same time as Robocod ( which I also loved ) , so I guess my... |
564,380 | 102,816 | 104,534 | 6 | Not as relevant | When compared to the original Charlie Brown Christmas this movie seems to be less social commentary and more an excuse for gags . It's more cartoony and has more obvious laughs rather than any irony or important things to say . There's another Xmas play in this ' un . Peppermint Patty is refusing to do any homework and... |
564,494 | 102,816 | 401,233 | 6 | Clichéd , slow and melodramatic , but worth it when it gets going | Appleseed simultaneously suffers from the worst Anime has to offer and benefits from the best animation and production a modern production can have . If you are a hardcore Manga fan ( or just occasionally fond of it like me ) you'll be aware of the most typical clichés , most of which make up the bulk of the Appleseed ... |
564,741 | 102,816 | 97,814 | 6 | Nice , but pointless | While I understand all of Hayao Miyazaki's work cannot be heavy , 2 hour-plus epics , this is the lamest of all his films . Don't get me wrong , I like it . But there isn't really a lot of story or character to make a feature length film out of . I watched the English dub with Kirsten Dunst doing the voice of Kiki and ... |
564,309 | 102,816 | 386,789 | 6 | It's fun to smash things ! | Grand Theft Simpsons is a great idea . But the execution is not in regards to this game . It may look wonderful but the graphics are not without their annoying flaws and while the voice cast may be great the initial hilarity quickly gives way to tedium . Simpsons : Hit and Run is an average game . It has a lot of cooln... |
564,224 | 102,816 | 95,925 | 6 | Enthusiastically , if slightly amateurishly , made horror hokum | Keep away from Pumpkinhead , Unless you're tired of living , His enemies are mostly dead , He's mean and unforgiving , Bolted doors and windows barred , Guard dogs prowling in the yard , Won't protect you in your bed , Nothing will , from Pumpkinhead . So goes the poem by Ed Justin . I've never heard of it previously... |
564,313 | 102,816 | 27,964 | 6 | A Bully for Mickey | Mickey and Minnie are out in the country for a nice quiet picnic . But that's soon rudely interrupted by the arrival of Mortimer Mouse , who promptly gatecrashes their pleasant afternoon . Mortimer is a loudmouth show-off with a big car , Minnie instantly swoons over him ( how shallow is that ? ) even though he takes g... |
564,385 | 102,816 | 27,963 | 6 | Ugly humans . | I've never seen humans drawn so ugly . Not so much the Polo players like Laurel and Hardy ( I always like them ) but more the spectators in the audience . I don't know who that huge-headed , bulbous-eyed guy was supposed to be but he freaked me out . Anyways , it's Disney stars vs Real Actors in this Polo match ( A rat... |
564,183 | 102,816 | 27,961 | 6 | Pluto's Pal | The King of Siam ( or something ) sends Mickey little Bobo , a baby elephant , for a new pet ( he could have phoned ahead ) and a pal for Pluto . So Mickey get down to hard work building an Elephant kennel . Pluto's lil ' Devil on his shoulder ( er . . . where did the angel go ? ) tells him that the elephant is his rep... |
564,668 | 102,816 | 463,915 | 6 | A fun space shooter | In a time where space-shooter were a dime a dozen , Blazing Lazers has long faded into obscurity . But if you come across it cheap ( very unlikely it only came out on the Turbo-Grafx and is generally very expensive ) I suggest you give it a go . The game has more in common with shooters like the 1942 series than say , ... |
564,181 | 102,816 | 27,960 | 6 | Nothing like a little gratitude eh ? | Mickey's Circus is having an ' orphans for free ' day . All of the orphans appear to be Mickey Mice . His circus ain't up to much as far as we see . All he appears to have are a bunch of dancing seals , they baby is the cutest . Though classed as a Mickey cartoon , he disappears for most of the show , leaving Donald to... |
564,760 | 102,816 | 26,029 | 6 | The 86 Minutes | I was really looking forward to this movie since the Criterion DVD is rather costly and a rerelease with a flawless screening seemed like the perfect way to be introduced to this so-called Hitchcock classic . It's a real shame the film ends up being so damn twee . The main problem is that the film is just too quaint . ... |
564,108 | 102,816 | 462,217 | 6 | Derivative , but fun for a while | I've never read the comic-book on which this game is based , nor have I seen the animated series . But the game was fun enough for me to consider checking out the comic-book whenever I get the chance . As a side-scrolling beat-em-up it's nothing spectacular . The dinosaurs are not really in it as much as typical human ... |
564,699 | 102,816 | 462,321 | 6 | Very cute and fun while it lasts . | But it's over , quite literally , in minutes . You could honestly finish the whole game in under 20 minutes , I kid you not . Basically , there are 4 ways to play Gremlins : Stripe vs Gizmo . You can the play as the very cute Gizmo , running around the various levels ( The Chinese Junk Shop , The Bank , The Police Stat... |
563,762 | 102,816 | 470,929 | 6 | A bit slow and meandering | Plus I'm not entirely sure if this is based on truth or if it's all just a complete fantasy . The idea of Doyle's life being picked apart by an apparition of the very character he created but it's a bit far-fetched to be believable . Still , it's interesting at the very least . However , very sad people like me will no... |
564,244 | 102,816 | 29,930 | 6 | All aboard ! | If Mickey , Donald and Goofy build themselves a boat ( ' so easy even a child can do it ' ) do you REALLY think that by the end of the cartoon it is still going to be standing ? Obviously not . Their usual lack of skill and ignorance for each other's well-being cause enough problems during the actual building of said b... |
564,735 | 102,816 | 37,709 | 6 | A mouse in the hand . | Tom has caught Jerry and is about to make a sandwich out of him when a buzzard swoops down out of the sky and snatches the sandwich from his hands , just as he is about to take a bite . Not taking kindly to such acts of heinous theft , Tom goes after his sandwich , but the buzzard isn't going to give it up so easily . ... |
564,738 | 102,816 | 452,681 | 6 | Better than I expected | Don't get me wrong , there's a lot of sheer crappiness in Santa Clause 3 , but there is still enough imagination and twists to balance it out and keep it alive for one more ( and hopefully last ) movie . I say hopefully last because I don't really think that Tim Allen really has any talent . He seems to have coasted hi... |
563,847 | 102,816 | 303,231 | 6 | Eh . . . it's okay | None of the scenes in this DVD are outstanding and the girls are only above average . The first girl Layla Gates does anal and DP with Marc Davis and Lex Steele , it's an alright scene but it's not hard enough or deep enough and the good bits are blandly shot and brief . Second is Christina , ( she says she is a Devon ... |
564,630 | 102,816 | 107,254 | 6 | Okay movie with serious lack of skill | The plot to this movie is just ridiculous . What were they thinking ? Any TRUE Friday the 13th fan ( myself included ) knows that the series officially ended with Jason Takes Manhatten . And this movie here is not a Friday the 13th film . It's a JASON movie . And not a terribly good one either . First off , the make-up... |
564,146 | 102,816 | 369,339 | 6 | Worst Assassin in history | I recently played the game Hit-man 2 : Silent Assassin on my Gamecube . The title really says it all : SILENT Assassin . Yes ? However I didn't particularly find it much fun with all that stealth and creeping around . I just went in guns blazing . I was crap . But I wasn't as bad as Vincent in this movie . Tom Cruise p... |
564,479 | 102,816 | 902,272 | 6 | Potentially brilliant if it weren't for that stupid , stupid plot | There's a lot to like about Justice League : The New Frontier , but I'm afraid all of that is counterbalanced by one of the silliest stories I've ever seen in animation . Set mostly in the 50s and featuring the DC hero fashion of that period the paranoid US government have blackballed all superheroes , claiming that th... |
563,891 | 102,816 | 33,460 | 6 | Kitchen Chaos | In this cartoon Donald tries his hand at some baking . A radio cookery show is own and the female host is instructing listeners on how to make their very own waffles covered in butter and maple syrup . Feeling hungry , Donald decides to join in . And he does well enough until , in a moment of distraction , he adds rubb... |
563,964 | 102,816 | 31,905 | 6 | Sea Duck | When this cartoon isn't busy with those really old ' bum ' jokes that were only funny in 1903 it's actually quite fun with an untypical ending . Donald , fancying himself as an old-fashioned Navy Captain , takes his nephews out on the sea in a pretty big sailboat . But , being Donald he has no idea how to hoist the anc... |
564,063 | 102,816 | 28,059 | 6 | Amusing silliness | Charley Chase recounts his experiences of his doomed trip to California with his wife and mother-in-law to his work colleagues . Apparently it was hell from the very beginning as his in-law nags and treats him like a hapless know-nothing . His wife always backs up this nagging by saying ' mother knows best ' . Listenin... |
563,935 | 102,816 | 43,128 | 6 | Not many laughs | In this short , Bugs tells the story of his life from the day he was born right up until his discovery in Hollywood and subsequent stardom . It isn't really funny as Bugs doesn't have anyone to work with for most of the cartoon . There are a couple of scenes with Elmer Fudd but he doesn't do or say much . And the runni... |
564,687 | 102,816 | 29,797 | 6 | Kinda good | Mickey brews up potion , in his mad scientist lab , to give super-courage and strength ( the secret ingredient is Bravo Pronto ) to it's consumer . He tests it on a fly , which soon beats up the spider who's web it is caught in . To make sure the potion is a complete success Mickey gives it to a mouse to in turn beats ... |
564,653 | 102,816 | 462,199 | 6 | Atmospheric , mildly interesting game ruined by terrible ending | I'm not really all that interested in adventure games for the PC , to be honest . I was really into them on the Commodore 64 back in the 80s , which is weird considering how much more visual and dynamic they are these days . The Black Mirror does have some gorgeous graphics and an impressively Gothic atmosphere , but i... |
564,394 | 102,816 | 71,807 | 6 | Goodnight , Sir . | The nefarious ( I've no idea what that means , but I know it works ) super-assassin Francisco Saramanga is out to kill Bond . Because he's like that . Scaramanga charges a million dollars a hit and is the only person in the world who has a slim chance of getting to Bond . Concerned for his safety , M takes Bond off act... |
563,830 | 102,816 | 58,471 | 6 | So tired | The Pink Panther is worn out and tired . All he needs is a place to catch a few Z's . The only flophouse around kicks him out for some reason ( prejudiced probably ) . So old Pinky goes for a desperate wander . Soon he comes across an empty house and invites himself in . Little does he know that the owner will be back ... |
563,860 | 102,816 | 327,056 | 6 | Brilliant acting and directing . But forgettable . | Spoilers thar be ! I remember being hyped at seeing this film at the Edinburgh International Film Festival last year , as were a lot of other people . Then , for no known reason , Clint Eastwood cancelled and we were left to wait another six months for the film to be released nationwide . Was it worth the wait ? Well ,... |
564,130 | 102,816 | 265,349 | 6 | A very interesting , if inconclusive , ghost story | I am not a skeptic , but I do like to look for the most logical explanations of paranormal events . Skeptics , on the other hand , look for equally preposterous ' real ' explanations for stuff that humans perhaps just don't understand . The Mothman Prophecies is full of mystery and subversion . Some parts of it could b... |
564,733 | 102,816 | 38,011 | 6 | Keep it down ! | Spike is stressed out and in need of a good sleep . Which is kind of hard to do when Tom is chasing Jerry , blasting at him with a shotgun and trampling over poor Spike . Threatened with silence or death , Tom backs off , but has to deal with Jerry running around deliberately making noise . This short won an Academy Aw... |
564,442 | 102,816 | 38,008 | 6 | Sea-through mystery . | Pursuit to Algiers is unfortunately void of any kind of mystery . The villains and their intentions are made clear to the characters and audience very early on so there's no puzzle or clues for Holmes to work with . The opening is quite well done , however , with Holmes being secretly led to a meeting with foreign offi... |
564,119 | 102,816 | 36,348 | 6 | Sherlock Holmes actually doesn't face death . | I am not sure where the title comes from . It seems to be rather generic and meaningless if you ask me . I could have come up with something better than that . I'm not sure why they didn't just name it Sherlock Holmes and the Musgrave Ritual since it is based on that particular Conan Doyle story anyway . This film has ... |
564,498 | 102,816 | 103,956 | 6 | Stretching the formula too far . | Set 8 years after Child's Play 2 , this sequel sees Andy Barclay attending Military School and getting bullied by the Drill Sergeant . Meanwhile , the Play Pals company has reopened the Good Guy factory and is starting production of the doll once more . But when clearing away Chucky's grisly remains , some of his blood... |
564,711 | 102,816 | 366,174 | 6 | Perfect , dumb entertainment ! | No one really wanted , or asked for , a sequel to the seriously stupid 1997 creature feature Anaconda . But it was a hit ( somehow ) and you know how studios are when it comes to milking something for all it's worth - yes , Halloween 9 is currently in pre-production ! Surprisingly , Anacondas is actually quite good for... |
564,673 | 102,816 | 469,194 | 6 | Fun , but pointless | Despite the beautiful graphics and multiple characters to choose from ( including several from Final Fight ) I just can't see any REAL difference between this and the endless other 1-on-1 beat-em-ups out there . I never really mastered all of the special moves but there weren't needed as fighting with simple punches an... |
564,270 | 102,816 | 469,199 | 6 | Actually quite good | The Looney Tunes have had a spotty history on the Genesis . I hated the Bug Bunny : Double Trouble game and Taz : Escape from Mars was just okay . This one however got it right and delivered nice graphics and decent gameplay . There are 7 levels , each one set up as a different cartoon with it's own title . You'll reco... |
564,495 | 102,816 | 62,126 | 6 | Always recycle | In the trash covered desert town of Littersburg , the Pink Panther is sitting on a park bench eating a banana . He throws the peel away but is arrested by a cop and charged with littering ( even though a banana peel is biodegradable ) . His punishment is to clean up the whole town . This task does manage pretty well , ... |
564,084 | 102,816 | 62,127 | 6 | Thumbing it | The Pink Panther is ambitious enough to attempt to hitchhike his way to Anaheim , California despite the fact that it's over 1500 . The reason why he wants to go there is never explained and he's not having much luck finding sympathetic drivers willing to take him this massive distance . A nearby horse laughs at him , ... |
564,657 | 102,816 | 469,212 | 6 | Would be good if it were not so bloody hard ! | As usual , Turrican 3 delivers on action and button bashing with inventive , imaginative level design and furious gameplay . There comes a point though , in level 2 , where the game becomes impossible and you ( or at least me ) go any further unless you have the timing of the Gods or something . Which is a shame , sinc... |
563,766 | 102,816 | 222,407 | 6 | Cute enough , but I just can't get into it | Super Mario World 2 : Super Mario Advance 3 : Yoshi's Island . Phew ! How about that for a title . I admit I found it a bit confusing putting these Mario Advance games in order but I think I've figured it out now . You gotta admit it's a bit convoluted . This game is a simple 2D platformer like most of the retro Mario ... |
564,134 | 102,816 | 481,086 | 6 | Good up until a certain point | I had Curse of Sherwood on my trusty old Commodore 64 back in the 80s . It was a fun game in which you explored Sherwood Forest as Friar Tuck , picking up artifacts and tackling demon skeletons , while occasionally shopping for bigger weapons . In this respect it was a very , very basic RPG but still quite enjoyable . ... |
563,786 | 102,816 | 42,926 | 6 | Cats : The Original Musical | Mammy-Two-Shoes ( dubbed to sound less ' racist ' to appease the narrow-minded PC brigade in the version that I saw ) goes out for the night , leaving Tom alone with the house to himself . He immediately invites a bunch of alley cats around for a party , causing no end of disturbance to Jerry , who doesn't take kindly ... |
564,740 | 102,816 | 419,420 | 6 | You do drugs . . . you die | Everybody in the world ought to know that . Yet there are still people who do . Adam and Paul proves this as well as showing the hopeless deprivation homeless junkies exist in . It's not depressing , unless you're a junkie yourself and are heading in that direction . In the course of one single day , Adam and Paul try ... |
564,788 | 102,816 | 166,204 | 6 | The thinnest Garfield special | I was never too keen on Garfield in Paradise , there is just something about it that doesn't gel . Garfield TV specials are always great but there's a couple of annoying things in this one . Jon has taken Garfield ( and a stowaway Odie ) to Hawaii for a vacation , staying in a lousy hotel after a third class plane ride... |
564,866 | 102,816 | 42,916 | 6 | Danger First | It's Independence Day , and Jerry's nephew Nibbles is determined to get himself blown up by playing around with all kinds of fireworks , leading to Jerry getting blasted every time . Tom appears and torments the mice , and a war breaks out between them leading to the usual tricks , chases and fights . Safety Seconds re... |
563,991 | 102,816 | 96,734 | 6 | Interesting , amusing and loads of fun , but it's just missing something . | Although this movie is imaginative and fun it fails to take full advantage of the ' zany ' set-up it creates so well . I feel as if there are a lot of scenes cut out and the movie was cut down to size in the editing room . Tom Hanks and his pals get carried away with the idea that their neighbors ( The Klopeks ) are ps... |
564,026 | 102,816 | 58,150 | 6 | Cheap-ass , simplistic Bond bore . | I know I'm just asking to be hauled over the coals for this , but Goldfinger is surely one of the dullest Bond films . I am not some cheeseburger junkie brought up on Die Another Day and xXx , before you make that assumption . But I found Goldfinger to be tolerable only because it was rather short for a Bond film and h... |
563,865 | 102,816 | 168,163 | 6 | We're doing our part with all our heart , heigh-ho ! | For fans of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs this'll be a truly bizarre experience to see them promoting war . . . bonds . This short was made with funding from the Canadian Government to encourage citizens to buy war dollars to help with Canada's involvement in WWII . It begins with the dwarfs digging for diamonds in t... |
564,148 | 102,816 | 27,281 | 6 | Not that funny | The typical chaos that follows Mickey and Donald everywhere provide most of the laughs in this cartoon . They're climbing the Alps and literally dragging Pluto behind them . Donald decides to mad at a little mountain goat for some reason , Mickey attempts the ridiculously evil crime of stealing an eagles eggs and Pluto... |
563,775 | 102,816 | 298,130 | 6 | Nonsense played straight | Morose color schemes , oddball characters and lots of rain apparently make a popular and successful film . While the Ring is an interesting view ( once ) if you look too closely at this film you'll realize that it's a huge pile of codswhallop that will never add up no matter how much you force it . Let's disassemble . ... |
564,774 | 102,816 | 33,908 | 6 | Funny , slightly | Not much is happening in this short . Jerry fancies himself a midnight snack , so he decides to raid the fridge . Tom in watching and foils his plans . Content with neutralizing the mouse , Tom helps himself to whatever he feels in the fridge . But he soon makes a mess and the offensive , highly stereotypical black sla... |
564,764 | 102,816 | 1,190,535 | 6 | Should be first ' adventures ' | The title is a bit of an inappropriately long mouthful and the film is clearly split into two separate halves that have nothing to do with each other . I'm not really fussed about this , as they both have enough plot and developments to keep the viewer interested . It opens with Young Indy explaining how he is no ordin... |
564,212 | 102,816 | 253,754 | 6 | Curious ' end ' to the Next Gen series | The longest in production , the lowest grossing and most limbo-bound Star Trek movie of all . Nemesis is neither here nor there . It entertains without satisfying and features loads of brilliant SFX , but little awe . Perhaps we are all just too familiar with franchise and it needs to forever be increasingly far-reachi... |
564,228 | 102,816 | 445,563 | 6 | Unbelievably hard , surprisingly short | The Metal Slug games are famous for their button-bashing action , slapstick humor and white-knuckle difficulty . Not surprising that they are so hard considering they were first made for the arcade and it's a ploy by SNK for you to spend more money playing it . Now everything you loved about Metal Slug is on the Gamebo... |
564,485 | 102,816 | 1,201,558 | 6 | End of the line of Corey Carrier | In his final outing as Young Indy Corey Carrier goes out with a whimper rather than a bang , but that's to be expected since he's lies about dying in the last act . The movie , written by Jonathan Hensleigh ( Armageddon , Jumanji , Die Hard 3 , The Punisher ) opens with the Joneses traveling to India where local charla... |
564,482 | 102,816 | 892,743 | 6 | Too tame and childish | I never could see Jonathan Pryce as Holmes myself but he was the only good thing about this otherwise sterile family drama that seems like it was made for CITV or CBEEBIES . There's absolutely no bloody atmosphere to it . Holmes ' trusty Baker Street kids lose their leader when he apparently drowns in the Thames and th... |
563,807 | 102,816 | 106,429 | 6 | Better than average TV fare | Most TV movies I've seen are abysmal . But this one manages to rise above than with some okay photography and a really cool musical score by David Michael Frank ( whatever became of him ? ) . Jeff Fahey is quite good at playing Frank , a crooked cop who is hiding out from the bad guys who blinded him in Mexico . There ... |
564,840 | 102,816 | 99,864 | 6 | Stripped down , but still stands well on ITs own . | I've never read the book of IT , but I did buy it for my mother's 30th birthday some years ago . She never took much interest so I had a browse myself . While not reading it cover to cover I did read about 100 pages in the middle section of the book just to see if it bore any resemblance to the TV-movie . Yes it does a... |
563,825 | 102,816 | 36,011 | 6 | Just a couple of laughs . | Donald is stationed at some listening post in what appears to be a remote part of the Pacific coast . Not a lot is happening . So much so that he falls asleep . His snoring / trumpeting , wakes up his nephews Huey , Duey and Louie who then play a couple of tricks on him . The few laughs come from Donald thinking he's u... |
564,860 | 102,816 | 758,746 | 6 | A very , very poor film but more of Jason Voorhees is always a good thing | I was wise enough to not get my hopes up . The Friday the 13th films have always fluctuated in quality , but aside from Part V they have always delivered the goods in either meagre or generous amounts . Platinum Dunes ' restart is utterly determined to gives us the best Jason possible , and it's evident that they tried... |
563,880 | 102,816 | 42,584 | 6 | Who ? | I've never heard of Claude Cat but he's another one of those Cartoon cats who likes to chase after mice / birds but never gets them . Only this time there's a twist . . . he's a hypochondriac . Dumb mice Bertie and Hubie break into his house ( so they are in the wrong ! ) in order to steal some cheese . Claude doesn't ... |
564,709 | 102,816 | 377,471 | 6 | I prefer this one . | I was never really that much of a fan of Get Shorty , but for some reason I watched it like a zillion times after I taped it off TV years ago ( I guess Dennis Farina was just too funny ) , so much so that I was word perfect in every scene . Sure , it was funny , but what ruined it for me was the obnoxious direction by ... |
564,307 | 102,816 | 29,260 | 6 | How nice | Mickey , Donald ( who's species are used to being hunted ) and Goofy are on a hunting trip in what appears to be the Canadian wilderness . Goofy and Donald disguise themselves as ( a horribly ugly ) female moose in order to get close enough to blow it's brains out . The plan works but the male moose falls in love with ... |
564,747 | 102,816 | 29,257 | 6 | Robots back then ? | In this 9-minute cartoon , Donald enters a museum exhibiting the latest inventions , such as robot butlers , robot hitchhikers , robot nannies , robot barber chairs . . . basically all robot stuff . And still , 70 years later , we have no robots . Weird . Anyway , Donald , being as irritable as he is , quickly becomes ... |
564,510 | 102,816 | 181,316 | 6 | Mindless Fun | In one of the few movies where Martin Lawrence's humor doesn't become seriously racist and xenophobic he plays Miles Logan , a jewel thief , after a $20 million diamond . But one of his team betrays him ( Peter Greene , once again playing a bad guy ) and they're plan is thrown all out of whack . After hastily stashing ... |
564,056 | 102,816 | 317,919 | 6 | Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall | The first was very complex . We moaned about it . The second was very simple . We moaned about it . I guess they wanted a mid-level of complexity to this film , it works in a very basic way but nothing other than some fantastic set-pieces really becomes of it . In fact , the only thing that stops this from being a typi... |
564,266 | 102,816 | 483,041 | 6 | One of the better Bond games on the C64 . | The Bond license ( to kill ) was wasted on a lot of crappy C64 games . View to a Kill was pants , as was The Living Daylights . But Live and Let Die fared much better as , instead of following the film's plot , the developers made the entire game a boat race based on the film's chase scene on the Florida everglades . I... |
563,944 | 102,816 | 781,425 | 6 | Only a couple of good moments | I only watched this because of Naomi St . James , who is one of the most gorgeous porn actresses ever , but her scene wasn't that good . It was just plain sex with a tiny bit of badly done anal at the end and then a weak cumshot . The only good bit is at the end when Donna Warner gets a DP and Patty Rouge enters to be ... |
564,586 | 102,816 | 165,982 | 6 | Mediocre | I don't want to be mean but I am not surprised this movie flopped so bad . Audiences seem to be turning their backs on traditional animation in favor of CGI ( check out Finding Nemo's box office results , like $300 million and climbing ) . There's nothing particularly wrong with Sinbad . It just doesn't stand out in an... |
563,918 | 102,816 | 106,292 | 6 | Lacking the class of the original . . . | . . . but still good to watch . It's consistently funny and has a reasonable plot but you get the feeling it should have been better . Maybe it's too late to save the series with another movie but it would be great to see Richard Dreyfuss on the big screen again , he really is an under-appreciated and underrated actor ... |
564,286 | 102,816 | 33,952 | 6 | Nothing special | Outside of a cozy Xmas atmosphere and the look and feel of a lovely country Xmas , this Tom and Jerry cartoon doesn't have much going for it outside of the usual hijinks . Jerry wanders around late on Xmas Eve , nosing at all the presents . House guardian Tom , doing his duty , chases him . It ends up with Jerry being ... |
564,081 | 102,816 | 467,417 | 6 | Good in it's day , hopelessly out of date now . | Suicide Express was one of those games that was fun to play on the Commodore 64 back in the days when stuff like that was mind-blowing . Today , you can get far superior stuff downloaded onto cell phones to the ultra-simplistic nature of Suicide Express is probably hard to forgive when you play it in 2006 . The graphic... |
564,229 | 102,816 | 465,428 | 6 | Fun , but ends too quick | I got this for my Gamecube believing that it might be a big epic ( it was a 2-disc game ) like Dungeon Siege but I was rather saddened when I finished it alarmingly quick . It's like they never even bothered to complete production of the game . It IS a lot like Dungeon Siege in regards to the exotic locations , RPG and... |
564,345 | 102,816 | 357,277 | 6 | Better than expected | I thought Daredevil was an absolutely pointless film with anonymous direction and an unappealing , non-unapalling lead actor . Thankfully , Elektra has a prettier lead and stronger direction from Rob Bowman , who seems to have ditched the slimy creature effects he seemed so fond of in X-Files and Reign of Fire . Darede... |
564,795 | 102,816 | 251,075 | 6 | Just plain fun | It's clear that as long as Ivan Reitman works in sci-fi comedy he will never achieve the greatness he did with Ghostbusters . That movie was a masterpiece of genius . Evolution is nothing but a fun ride that comes nowhere near the class of Ghostbusters . But it's still well worth it . Weird really when you consider tha... |
563,863 | 102,816 | 34,667 | 6 | Isn't the army fun ? | After receiving his draft letter Donald marches his way right into the delivery office to sign up . He is probed and prodded during his medical and is soon down at the barracks getting trained to be a killer duck . A rather false portrayal of the army is offered here ( along to a lovely song ' The Army's not the Army a... |
563,829 | 102,816 | 42,290 | 6 | The usual hijinks . . . | . . . only this time not up to the usual high standard . It's a one-joke cartoon that kinda stretches it's premise too thin . Bugs is his usual self but Yosemite Sam is now Sam Von Schamm The Hessian and during the American Revolutionary War they have a face-off in the Battle of Bagel Heights . Basically , this involve... |
564,297 | 102,816 | 105,690 | 6 | Doesn't live up to the sequel | Despite popular belief , this isn't the big man's best movie . Competent and skillful it may well be but there's far too much espionage and not enough action . It was made in that period of the early to mid-nineties where every action movie was ' Terrorists take over a ( fill in the blank ) ' . In this case it's a Nava... |
564,120 | 102,816 | 31,022 | 6 | Sparkless , but still an interesting watch | There's no real Conan Doyle mystery here , the title is just a generic label to lure viewers . But there are still some interesting moments here and there despite the tepid nature of the plot . Moriarty ( apparently the only villain the Holmes ever faced ) plans to steal the crown jewels from the Tower of London and si... |
563,958 | 102,816 | 353,014 | 6 | Pretty to look at , but has a really dull story | I had absolutely no clue what to expect from this movie . All I had seen were those really cool posters and I'm glad to say that the actual animation of the movie is brilliant . It's an utterly seamless mix of live action , 3D CGI and traditional drawn images . A wonderfully detailed and beautiful world is created and ... |
564,303 | 102,816 | 120,906 | 6 | Had Zero Effect on me | I like private eye movies but Zero Effect just took too long to get started and Daryll Zero himself ( although brilliantly played by Bill Pullman ) knows so many stupid things that no one would ever remember for any reason . Check out the scene in the crime scene motel for example . Ben Stiller is quite watchable too t... |
564,075 | 102,816 | 40,625 | 6 | What's up MacDoc ? | As usual , Bugs Bunny gets hopelessly lost when tunneling to his latest vacation ( the La Brea tar pits ) . This time he ends up in Scotland and mistakes a ( stereo ) typical ' Scotsman ' playing the bagpipes for an old lady being mauled by a monster . Bugs promptly jumps to her rescue and smashes the pipes to tiny lit... |
563,951 | 102,816 | 364,013 | 6 | Fun for the majority but ends up being too damn hard . | Like any other 2D Sonic game , this game does offer a huge amount of fun , with colorful levels and jazzy music . But the last 3 stages are so damn hard you'll just be chucking your Nintendo against the wall in a fit of rage . There are too many traps and stingers in each level . For a game that sort of promotes itself... |
564,225 | 102,816 | 110,399 | 6 | If you take this seriously then you're totally missing the point ! | A Low Down Dirty Shame is really no more than all the most familiar Cop movie clichés arranged in an order that makes a barely cohesive story . But it's all the fun and silly action that occurs in between that really matters ! It's a bit like The Last Boy Scout from a spoof-blaxploitation angle . Shame ( Keenan Ivory W... |
564,551 | 102,816 | 365,748 | 6 | Not really THAT great . | It's time for a serious , level-headed review of Shaun of the Dead . This movie is one of the most over-hyped of the year . I'm tired of everyone calling it an instant cult classic . This phrase doesn't make any sense . A cult classic is a film that no one sees by has a small but loyal following . Shaun of the Dead was... |
563,769 | 102,816 | 455,754 | 6 | Way too easy ! | Shadow Dancer is the story of Joe Mushashi and his faithful dog Yamoto . Together they go out and beat up the ruthless thugs of the Neo Zeed Corporation and it's boss the Union Lizard . It's a load of confusing nonsense and in the journey from Arcade to Genesis the plot seems to have been erased and events taking place... |
564,785 | 102,816 | 314,353 | 6 | Difficult to figure out but pays off emotionally | Here is a worthless fact for you . Tear of the Sun was supposed to be Die Hard 4 . It was taken from a book called Les Larmes du Soleil by Henri Vernes . In " Les Larmes du Soleil " , a plane in which the hero is travelling over South America is hijacked by rebels . They intend on asking for a ransom to the Governments... |
564,412 | 102,816 | 383,216 | 6 | Don't listen to stuffy critics . This film is damn ( berger ) funny ! | I was expecting the worst . After reports of re-shoots and the film being delayed for the purposes of inserting some apparently much-needed humor I expected The Pink Panther to deliver a turd in 2006 . Much to my surprise , that is not exactly the case . I'll get to my main problem with the film right away . That's Sha... |
563,939 | 102,816 | 800,108 | 6 | Like Rampage crossed with Street Fighter | By that I mean you play as monsters who beat each other up against the backdrop of trashing cities . A novel idea , but I am assuming that King of the Monsters is a game that is probably best enjoyed in the arcade . After playing the Sega Genesis version I can definitely see the appeal but it's just not that appealing ... |
